IT'S BULLSHIT SNAKE AU TIME!
I WANT TO PLAY THIS DUMB NAGA VERSION OF MY OC AND THAT IS WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN

SOME INFO:
He looks like this: X | X | X | X
Super cute gift art: By Luc | By Stabby

DESCRIPTION
JW is about twenty feet long from the top of his head to the tip of his tail. His skin is purple with green accent patterns. He's got a light tan underbelly. Sometimes I color his hair green and sometimes I color it blonde. I always forget which one I decided on, but it doesn't really matter. He's got yellow eyes and little lines of heat pits under them.

SETTINGS

GAME EVENT AU - Some games don't need much of a reason for shapeshifting events to occur. I've been in a few! Want to work off of established CR? Just assume some temporary bullshit is happening in a game we're already both in! JW is a snek now. Maybe your character is un-changed or maybe they're something else entirely! Up to you.

CANON AU - In his canon, JW has learned to move between worlds. What does he do with this knowledge? He steals shit and then sells it back on earth to antique dealers. Well this time he's gotten ahold of a cursed bangle in the shape of The Ouroboros. It constricted to his wrist and changed his body. Now he's freaked out and acting carelessly and somehow wound up dumping his ass into YOUR character's world.

-Will add more in the future!-

JW sluggishly raised a brow. What was--what-oh. He snorted and looped a bony arm around GInko's shoulders as well and hung more heavily off of him. The naga was very good at becoming dead weight at a moment's notice.

"Well if you were feelin' left out, you oughtta told me. I won't even charge you."

[onegreeneye]

He adjusted his grip a little to better support JW; at least it wasn't too difficult for him to account for the additional weight.

"That's very kind of you. Is this your new business plan, then? I'd hope you're being careful not to poison your customers."

[goldeneyeball]

"Careful, careful as if those asses were made of fine china!" He flashed a grin and his fangs popped into view from where they'd been safely tucked away. "How could they pay me if their internal organs all liquefied in the middle of an--"

He couldn't even say it. He started laughing--that wheezy delirious laughter you got when you were overtired. Winter, man.

[onegreeneye]

Ginko gave a quiet snort, still supporting JW, but leaned over a little to see how he was holding up. "You doing alright? If you want we could stop somewhere for a few minutes. Might be some stores around here with heating."

[goldeneyeball]

"I wouldn't mind a pit stop." As proud as he liked to act, the cold was absolutely kicking his ass and if he wanted to make it to Ginko's place of work, he was going to have to find somewhere warm. "Being cold-blooded, man, would not recommend."

[onegreeneye]

"Yeah, can't say I'm too jealous of that."

He looked around for just a moment before pointing out a nearby, mostly randomly-selected, storefront and tugging JW gently toward it. "Want to try there?"

[goldeneyeball]

"Can't blame you."

JW followed and once they were in out of the wind and chill, the naga started to thaw out. He rubbed his shoulders and shivvered out one last hiss before seeing what kind of store they were in.

"Antiques...I don't believe it. Even worlds away, I can't escape them."

To keep his blood flowing, JW slithered his way down one of the aisles piled high with elaborate furniture, statues of brass and marble and wood, candelabras which belonged to somebody's great great great something or other and--

CRACK!

"Aah! Shit shit shit!" JW started backpedalling down the narrow aisle as the shards of what was once a mirror spun on the floor. "I didn't touch it!"

[onegreeneye]

"Guess this is just your fate." He was only half-joking.

Ginko followed JW through the aisles, idly glancing over the objects with more faint curiosity than real interest. The sound of the mirror shattering made him jump slightly, giving a startled cracking sound of his own, and he looked between JW and the broken glass on the floor, blinking in surprise.

"--Damn, are you okay?"

[goldeneyeball]

He held his arms up and out of the way as he rose higher and higher on his coils s that he could see over the aisles.

"Yeah! It didn't get me. Geez." Now that the sudden noise was over, JW settled back into being his usual crabby self. "You know I could tolerate this snake business if this world didn't go out of its way to remind me how ugly I am. I get it!"

A thought.

"The clerk isn't anywhere nearby are they? Did anyone see us?"

[onegreeneye]

"Well, I think we've established that this place has bad taste in general."

He glanced around thoughtfully, one ear flicking. "...I don't think so, actually."

[goldeneyeball]

"Okay, good, that means wedon'thavetopayforit."

He shoved past Ginko and down another aisle that held mostly clothes. This side of the store had another window that looked out onto the street where people and monsters alike walked, all bundled up. Here, he made a neat coil to rest back on so that he could look out and continue thawing out.

"I wish this place had Christmas. Then we'd have carolers. Then we'd have free food show up right at our door."

He's still pouting over that mirror, just give him a minute.

[onegreeneye]

...You know what, he's not going to object to that.

He kept trailing behind JW, still glancing over the objects in the store as they passed them. "That sure does sound convenient... did that happen in your world?"

[goldeneyeball]

"Yeah, it was annoying. We got this holiday, right? And some folks like to come to your house, uninvited, and sing at you and then they expect you to give them money."

Grump grump grump.

[onegreeneye]

"...And they don't bring--" Wait. "--JW, you know we can't just eat anyone who shows up at our door!"

Guess who had completely missed JW's intentions earlier.

[goldeneyeball]

"Why the hell not? They're trespassing and annoying and perfectly edible." He sank down even further, arms folded against the chill rolling off the glass. "I haven't had a decent meal since the fog."

[onegreeneye]

"That doesn't mean we should eat them."

Ginko stuffed his hands in his pockets, glancing at JW. "I could... stop by the cemetery tonight."

He was just going to pretend that that was actually what JW meant.

[goldeneyeball]

JW let out a disgruntled sound. "You don't need to be skulking around graveyards, Ginko, somebody's going to end up shooting you one of these days."

Plus, corpses didn't have that FEAR taste all throughout them.

The snake put a hand up on the troll's furry shoulder and gave it a squeeze. "You know what, I'll go hunting for us for once."

[onegreeneye]

"No more likely than someone shooting you."

True, but they also didn't have that aftertaste of GUILT AND SELF-LOATHING.

He reached up on impulse to set his hand on top of JW's, attempting a small smile. But he didn't look all that enthusiastic about it. "...You can if you want to."

[goldeneyeball]

"Ginko, I love you, but you're about as stealthy as a white semi-truck. I, on the other hand, am a man of the alleyways and the shadows."

He arched himself up and loomed, throwing his shadow from the dim light above down the aisle they were huddled in.

"I specialize in not being seen."

[onegreeneye]

Ginko snorted softly, his tail swishing around to brush against JW's. "Yeah? I wouldn't be so sure, with those colors."

[goldeneyeball]

"PURPLE I ALMOST INVISIBLE IN THE DARK, ASSHOLE." He stands up even taller, looking like some kind of goofy garden hose as he stretches himself up. If he weren't so long, he wouldn't be able to support himself.

[onegreeneye]

"And yellow and green aren't. Get back down here before we get kicked out."

He tugged on JW's arm, but he was still grinning.
